If you say so... But it is certai8nly not what I meant (tho it has limited merit...)
I am merely pointing out why overloads in general should not be an issue for well designed & built alternators. In this particular case I am referring to flat and collapsed batteries as per my examples (dual batteries; jump starts; 8V Optimas) in response to your vicious cycle comment.

Well if you would make these robust alternators and sell them for the same price as today's run of the mill then they would exist but I'd suspect it would be a highly unprofitable venture assuming you even break even. Silver is a better conductor than copper but we all know copper is king (everywhere) and surely even you don't want to pay the cost to replace all your copper wires with silver when copper is more than sufficient for alot less money.

Don't bet on copper for too long CB think LAN circuits with fibre optics or RF signal propagation.

LOL! Yeah, I guess you're right. Hitachi & Mitsubishi (with whatever rebadging as Nissan etc) have certainly proved to be failures haven't they?
It sounds like you haven't had a typical OEM Jap alternator.
Try one next time a battery causes your OEM alternator to fail. If you have already, let me know the details.
And what the heck has this got to do with silver? rs 730 draining battery - Page 4 - Last Post -- posted image. You're copper. Howard and I are gold (tho Howard is really white gold).
